Visitor figures

* In March 1996 visitor statistics began to be collected using a graphical counter program. Visitors not using a graphical browser (a minority) may not be counted, but visitors to mirror sites and those not necessarily using the main VLmp page are counted.

See also access statistics till February 1997 as a graphical table. (New)


Increasingly, WWW browsers allow convenient proxy cacheing of Web pages at a local site to save on network usage, so the actual number of recent visits are probably somewhat more than the figures above suggest, and may account for the apparent recent slight drop in figures. Fuller information on the museums access statistics for April 1995 and the week of 28 April - 4 May 1996 are available.
